IPL 2018: KKR vs SRH

New Delhi:

Kolkata Knight Riders will face high-flying Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday at Eden Gardens in Indian Premier League.

The Hyderabad team will be high on confidence after winning both their opening fixtures, whereas Kolkata will be looking to bounce back after their last over defeat against Chennai Super Kings.

Both the teams are well balanced, but KKR will look for much better bowling performance after leaking too many runs in the death overs against CSK. Nagarkoti’s injury which ruled him out from the IPL will also hurt Kolkata.

Hyderabad will be sweating while selecting the playing XI. If Bhuvaneshwar Kumar is fit then it would be too harsh to keep Sandeep Sharma out of the squad given his fantastic 2-25 in the last game.

Interesting face off:

Dhawan vs Johnson: Dhawan has been out to Johnson thrice in 26 deliveries, scoring just 22 runs. He averages only 25.11 against KKR - the least amongst the seven opponent teams.
